WHAT IS ONE-KEY™ TO UNLOCKING THE DIGITAL JOBSITE.

WHAT IS ONE-KEY™ TO UNLOCKING THE DIGITAL JOBSITE.

“The first phase of ONE-KEY™ will deliver 3 core benefits that will have an immediate impact on productivity: tool control, inventory management and tool reporting”

“The possibilities that ONE-KEY™ brings to the job-site are endless, and these benefits are not the end result, but just the beginning! The capabilities of the program will continue to grow and evolve, and for the first time, we will be able to deliver more and more features to our product even after it is purchased.” Says Oliver Lerch Vice President of Product Management for Milwaukee® Tool EMEA.

The corner stone of the ONE-KEY™ platform, Tool Control, will be available in Q1 2016 with the introduction of new M18 FUEL™ Drilling and Driving products that will sync wirelessly to the ONE-KEY™ application. The ONE-KEY™ app (available to download in February), will allow users to use pre-determined set-ups for specific fasteners and materials, or completely customise their own profile with torque and speed settings for the application at hand. With a touch of the button on the tool, users will be able to easily go back and forth between these saved profiles so that each application is done with the most accurate and productive settings.

Inventory Management will be the second component available through the web and mobile app, creating a central place for to manage all of their tools and equipment across their network of jobs and operators. This free-to-use platform allows companies to keep detailed records of each tool, even non-Milwaukee brands, so they can easily build a budget and manage their annual spend on equipment. Managers are also able to assign locations or specific owners to each asset, providing accountability, and enabling easy information-sharing between the field and back-office. As a cloud based solution, updates and edits will be synchronised real-time throughout all levels of an organisation.

“If you think about the number of fasteners that require different speeds and torques, or the amount of repetitive applications that our users experience on a daily basis, there are hundreds of different tool profiles and setups that can be implemented,” says Lerch. “Tool Control will give users infinite customisation capabilities for various applications, allowing them to make small tweaks that make a huge difference.”

In Q2 2016, Tool Reporting will be added to the ONE-KEY™ platform with the launch of M18™ FORCE LOGIC™ 6T Electrical Crimpers. With the ability to wirelessly synchronise with the web based program, the user will be able to upload data and history to create custom reports that track the success and timing of electrical terminations. Furthermore, the ONE-KEY™ program will assist in tracking the utilisation and service intervals of the tool to maximise uptime and keep inventory lean.

Available for initial download in Feb 2016, ONE-KEY™ will be accessible by computer from our website at www.milwaukeetool.eu/ONE-KEY, or by a mobile app interface on compatible Android and iOS smartphones. ONE-KEY™ is a true testament to Milwaukee®’s focus on the user and investment in game changing technology.
